Welcome to the gtID# information web site. This site has been designed to provide current information to the Georgia Tech community concerning the use of the new gtID#.

Effective March 1, 2003, Georgia Tech will no longer use Social Security Numbers as a primary way to identify Tech constituents; instead, a unique identifier called the gtID# will be assigned to all Georgia Tech constituents. The gtID# will be used across all systems, applications, and many business processes throughout the lifetime of an individuals association with the Institute. This change is in accordance with Tech’s new Social Security Number policy which was approved in August 2002. This step is critical in the continuing efforts to reduce the risk of identity theft for the campus community.
